Badwolf - it sounds like you run an actual entertainer business, and are in a relatively smaller area than a major city, because you are concerned about reputation, regular clientele, your image. When I think of busking I think of being relatively anonymous, mobile i.e. transient to location, and a more DIY approach of just showing up somewhere with an open instrument case. Sort of the hobo lifestyle. The buskers I see on a daily basis appear this way. There are those I see that have their regular spots and have permits, and more elaborate performances and props who are what I call street performers. Thats for sure not me! I just want to show up and play my guitar and collect some money for it.
